chapter 15-waves

a disturbance that transfers energy from one place to another without transferring matter what is this?

• wave

• mechanical wave

• transverse wave

• lasagna

a wave that can travel only through matter what type of wave is this?

• transverse wave

• crests

• mechanical wave

• wave

The material that waves travel through is what

• wave way

• troughs

• medium

• small

a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.

• chips

• energy transfer

• mechanical wave

• transverse wave

The highest point of a transverse wave.

• crests

• troughs

• chests

• sgasga

the lowest point of a transverse wave.

• crests

• troughs

• chests

• lasagna

the particles in a medium move parallel to the direction that the wave travels.

• parellal lines

• lasagna

• fractions

• longditudinal wave

the regions of a longitudinal wave where the particles in the medium are cloest together.
